Hi again!

Sorry for all the questions.

I was just wondering about the jolting and skin sensitivity I am having when I am doing my relaxation exercises.

Is this normal?If it is,why is it happening?

I was meditating in bed last night and I heard a noise and it startled me so much that I felt like I got an electrical shock.It is very uncomfortable and my skin feels very sensitive,like when I have a sunburn.

In the middle of it my husband brushed against me and again it was very uncomfortable so it looks like when I am meditating,I can't have anything touching me or disterbing me.

Has anyone else experienced this?

When you are in meditation your senses are heightened especially your sense of hearing and touch.  It is not uncommon for you to be startled when doing this excersise.  
It pays to let others in the house know you are going to meditate as after some time if you keep getting startled you may find your unable to relax as much therfore it will become more difficult to obtain a deep level of meditation.  Some meditate in still quiet others with light instrumental music on.  do what feels best for you.  Take the phone of the hook, close the door with a do not disturb sign on it or sit in a park away from the hustle and bustle of others and let go.

I agree with flight of angelwings, what you were experienceing was an interuption of your energy flow from an outside external interruption.It is much more comfortable to have complete silence(if possible) with no interruptions, what "flight' is saying is correct, you need to let others know when you need your space so that you can have a free flow of energy that is uninterrupted.

Thank you both for your help!

I lov this place!!!

It is also on the nervous system that we attune.  That is what can be startled and/or sensitive to the meditation.
